So yeah I have compiz on my ubuntu feisty machine. I can run games in wine fine, but for instance with The Frozen Throne / Warcraft 3 , I can see my background as though the game window was transparent. For the life of me I can't seem to fix it. In wine I chose for my manager to not have control of the applications so I could get it full screen (otherwise my ubuntu logo/applications/places/system bar would appear at the top of the games (can't have that)

looking for suggestions.

ty,
sir william

It's advised to disable Compiz when playing games, especially under WINE.

There is a tray icon for this if I'm not mistaken.
